hey saniya - hope you can help me :(
the holidays are about to be over pretty soon.. which means back to school!

however, im very self conscious of my side burns and upper lip.

in actual fact, upper lip is OK seeing as i get it waxed once a month.. but when growth occurs it looks awful. i have to wait for it to fully grow before i can get it waxed effectively. therefore, shall i start to thread it? i heard its a much easier method and it can pull out even the sparse of hairs. im just a little reluctant as i heard it encourages hair growth :(

now, moving onto the side burns - my worst issue. the hairs are long and thin and they stretch down too much. when i look in the mirror - it seems as if im staring back at a man, its that disturbing! haha

anyways, a couple of months ago i did something i totally regret. i shaved an inch of it.
yes i know its bad and you dont know how much i wish i could turn the clocks back!!

i remember it was before school and i got so pissed that i took out the blade and swiped an inch. i realised i made a HUGE mistake so didnt touch it again since then. anyhow, the hair on that side has grown - but thinker and longer!

ive learnt to put up with it but i wish to end this whole trauma. u can just imagine - one side fine and the other, well.. a copy of my great uncle's! seeing as i did something to it.. have to finish it off, dont u agree?

i been thinking of purchasing some facial wax strips. i know teen skin shouldnt put up with wax on the face as at this asge skin is v. sensitive - but i do my upper lip and im mine. it just goes a little red after doing so, but after abt half an hour its fine. so shall i wax my side burns?

hope you can give me top advice on what to do with upper lip and side burns.

yours always,
Saba XxXxXxX
